Jackson, just south of Yellowstone is a charming little town (or it was when I visited). If you don't want to shoot what other tourists have done stay away from the geyser fields. I also found that if one was willing to hike a few hundred yards from the parking lot, most of the crowds had thinned

Re: Vacation suggestion

Yes. I remember seeing it in NG when it was first published and being amazed by how good McCurry is. It’s become a cliche in itself now, as you can find all sorts of variants of it now as tourists clearly go to that spot to reproduce it. Another way of treating the well-known subjects is to

Re: Vacation suggestion

Long ago (51 years ago or so) a colleague took a photo workshop in Yosemite- senior instructor was Ansel Adams. A major insight he brought back was Ansel’s advice to use Polaroid film to preview exposure and composition prior to the 35mm or 6x6 exposure. Stan Sent from my iPad > On Apr 19,

What Godders said. Back in the days when I was pumping iron five days a week I would hike into the Santa Monica mountains with the 6x7 and three lenses. Even then, I couldn’t imagine carrying more. Today at 75, my K-1 and one lens is all I can manage. Paul > On Apr 19, 2023, at 11:44 AM,

While in Yellowstone, spend at least a day in Grand Tetons and another in Jackson Hole. Lots of good photo targets there. Dan Matyola *https://tinyurl.com/DJM-Pentax-Gallery * On Wed, Apr 19, 2023 at 9:59 AM wrote: > In Sept we’re going to Yellowstone

Vacation suggestion

In Sept we’re going to Yellowstone for 1 week followed by the Grand Canyon for another week. At least with digital I don’t have to worry about running out of film. (Just battery life.) Except for the 6x7. At 10 shots per roll one must be judicious. So the question is: What should I shoot? Not
